Home›Hey! I’m allosexual so I thought I might try and help explain sexual attraction. For me, it’s a feeling of excitement and a desire to be intimate with the person. Arousal usually isn’t key. It’s more a feeling of “wow, I want to touch their body”, which may lead to arousal later. Most importantly, is the “attraction” upsetting to you? If so it may not be attraction after all, it might be intrusive sexual thoughts or outside pressure making you feel like you must be attracted to them. Be safe!
